I think it’s important, what you said about kids with the same courseload not having as much trouble. Take that seriously, and expand your college application list. It’s very common on CC for kids to come and say, “X happened which means I’m not as competitive as I thought. Am I still as competitive as I thought?” and when people say, “No, you’re not as competitive as you thought,” then two things can happen - they go complain on Reddit that CC is mean, or they expand their college application list to include some of the zillions of other places in this world that don’t start with capital H.
